The best urban all-rounder

Chapter 1 The Golden Disc

Chapter 1 The Golden Disc
Ninghai, the largest seaport in the south of China.

At this time, on a slightly remote street in Ninghai DC District, Chen Xu walked to the phone booth facing the street, picked up the phone, and dialed a number he had always kept in mind, and it was also the only number he remembered.

After the phone rang three times, a slightly tired and lazy female voice, a very young girl's voice, came from over there.

"Who! Woke people up so early in the morning!"

When Chen Xu heard this voice, he looked at the time on the LCD on the phone. It's eight o'clock in the morning. Is this still early?
"I am your brother!"

"elder brother!"

The weary voice on the other side of the phone immediately changed, becoming pleasantly surprised and eager.

"Brother! You haven't called me for a long time! My phone keeps turning off when I call you."

"Brother, you don't know, I almost miss you."

"I'll go to Ninghai to see you in a few days during the school summer vacation!"

"If you don't study hard at school, you will be in the third year of high school next year!"

"Didn't I miss you! Besides, I can study with my brother! Your sister and I are good at studying! This time the school test, I was in the top ten of the whole grade! The teacher said, as long as you keep this score, You must be admitted to a key university!"

Hearing what his sister Chen Qing said, a long-lost smile appeared on Chen Xu's face.

He is just such a younger sister. His mother divorced and remarried with his father when they were very young, and they have never seen each other since.His father had an accident in the mine when he was in high school, leaving him and a younger sister who was still in junior high school.

He tried to find his mother at that time, but there was no clue at all. As for his relatives, they were relatively distant when his father was there. Now that his father is gone, he doesn't care about their siblings.

That year, Chen Xu resolutely gave up his studies. In order to allow his younger sister to study, he left Shaanxi Province alone and came to work in Ninghai, Jiangnan Province. He heard that it was easy to make money there.This has been three years, and my sister is no longer in junior high school, and has already reached the second year of high school.

My sister's grades have always been very good. This is what Chen Xu is most proud of. When he heard that his sister was admitted to a key university, Chen Xu was naturally happy for her, but at the same time, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Of course, he was worried about money. Huaxia's key universities were all located in first-tier cities in China, and the consumption there was ridiculously high.But no matter what, Chen Xu will support her younger sister to go to school. If she can go to university, she will support her to go to college.

As for money, of course he has his brother.

"My sister is the best, study hard, stay at home during the summer vacation and study hard, don't run around!"

"No! I'm going to Ning Hai to see you. You don't know how much I miss you. Brother, just promise me!"

The voice on the other end of the phone already smelled like a baby.

Chen Xu sighed in his heart, as for his younger sister, in fact, why would he not want to see her!
"Okay! But you are only allowed to stay in Ninghai for three days. You must tell me before you come!"

"Then don't turn off your phone!"

"it is good!"

"Okay, brother is going to work, hang up!"

"Brother! Goodbye!"

"Ok!"

Chen Xu hung up the phone and paid [-] cents for the call when he came out.Taking out his mobile phone from his pocket, Chen Xu looked at it, a black and white screen mobile phone that could be used as an antique, and put it in his pocket.The phone bill is another sum of money!And when his sister was coming to Ninghai, he had to find a place that he could see and rent for a few days, which was also money.And... Chen Xu's head gets dizzy just thinking about it.

Chen Xu is extremely financially distressed, because he dropped out of high school, has no academic qualifications, and has no relatives or relationships to rely on in Ninghai.In fact, the past three years in Ninghai have not been good. I entered a factory once, but I didn’t work for a month. The factory owner lost his gambling money and ran away. Originally, the workers wanted to sell the things in the factory to pay for their wages. Who knew that the factory and all the goods were mortgaged. Give a few local lenders in Ninghai.

Later, when I went to the construction site, others thought that he was too young and thin.After finally finding a job in a restaurant, the boss scolded him for bumping into a customer without even giving him a penny.

It can be said that Chen Xu came to Ninghai because of his bad luck. He found more than a dozen jobs, but he couldn't work for a few days.

Later, there was really no other way. A fellow villager saw him as pitiful, so he asked him to do it with himself.As for what to do, Chen Xu didn't know until he got there that he was picking up waste, that is, picking up junk.

Chen Xu didn't hold it against him, nor did he pick and choose, as long as he could make money and provide for his younger sister's food, clothing and schooling, he would do anything.

Chen Xu has been doing this for more than two years, and picking up waste is not bad. At least for more than two years, his sister has no worries about food and clothing, and can afford school tuition and other expenses by himself.

However, besides supporting his younger sister's education, Chen Xu really didn't have any extra money. For himself, he could spend as little as he could.The place where he lives is the yard shared with a few fellow villagers, and what he eats, Chen Xu can't remember how long he hasn't tasted meat.

It is really difficult for children from poor families to live.However, Chen Xu didn't complain at all. In his heart, it was his duty to support his sister.

After leaving the phone booth, Chen Xu got on his own horse, a [-] donkey dug out of the tatters and repaired with the help of a fellow villager.

Chen Xu got on the bike, crossed the street, and soon left the densely populated area, and gradually rode towards the suburbs.

Chen Xu picks up waste at a garbage dump in the suburbs, where half of the waste in the DC area is dumped and sorted.It was far away from the city, and there were hardly any people around.If it weren't for the newly built Haicheng Avenue, which was never far away, it would be so desolate that it could pretend to be a ghost and scare people during the day.

Chen Xu rode very fast, and arrived in about twenty minutes.

A pungent smell can be smelled from a distance, but Chen Xu has long been used to this smell.

After leaving the car, I greeted a few people I knew.Chen Xu took out a dilapidated backpack he had put in the back seat of the car, which was also picked up from a garbage dump.He took his clothes from inside, his work clothes, which were ragged and outrageous, and had an unspeakable smell.You can wear these clothes here, if you wear them in the town or city, it can directly smoke away a group of people.

"Morning, Uncle Chen!"

As soon as he changed his clothes, Chen Xu saw Uncle Chen walking over, who was also a fellow villager who brought him to pick up waste.He has the same surname as him, and lives in the same courtyard, so they are usually very close.Chen Xu regarded him as his uncle.

"Give!"

Uncle Chen threw a plastic bag to Chen Xu, and Chen Xu caught it. Inside were a few warm buns.

"Uncle Chen..."

"Don't tell me you ate in the morning, I don't know you yet! I really don't know why you are so economical!"

"Uncle Chen, I..."

"I know that you have to support your sister to go to school, but you can't spare yourself at all. Can we do this job without eating anything in the morning? If you collapse, I'll see who will take care of your sister!"

"Okay, let's eat quickly, there are a few cars coming over there, and there are a lot of good things from the plastic chemical factory!"

The good things that Uncle Chen said are naturally rubbish that can be sold for money.

Chen Xu was moved, he wolfed down a few steamed buns, and walked towards the garbage that had just been dumped.

At this time, several people were picking inside, and Chen Xu also joined them.

After picking it up for a while, Chen Xu saw a golden object in a pile of construction waste. Out of curiosity, he dug up the surrounding waste to reveal a golden disc, which was about half the size of a palm and thick as a finger. Put it in the palm of your hand.

When Chen Xu picked it up, the tentacles felt icy cold, but they were not metal, they were very light.Unlike plastic, plastic will not be cold in the hand.There are many patterns engraved on the disk, and Chen Xu has never seen such patterns.

Chen Xu didn't pay much attention to it, seeing that the golden disc looked pretty good, so he put it in his pocket casually.

Several people were picking up garbage, and a dozen people came here from another part of the garbage dump.When he walked over, he faintly surrounded these people.

"Uncle Chen, those blackheads are here again!"
